The music is composed of recordings of acoustic bass, accordion, cymbals and room noise, using four pairs of stereo microphones. All the sound elements have been filtered, cut and spatialized for the eight-channel system, in order to create sharp contrast and tonal gradation between sound, noise and silence. Scherrer lets only narrow strips of her video projections be seen on the walls of the gallery, a drawing of the shadows of slashes that have been cut through black paper. Shapes and colors crawl up and down and across these cracks, sometimes barely visible and almost still, and sometimes dynamic and colorful. The projected image as a whole is hidden in the dark and of no importance. ‘Slash’ is about light within darkness, sound within silence; glimpses of something real which invites the viewers and listeners to use their imagination to fill in the gaps.

The festival concept centers on the idea of tackling new challenges at new venues with new teams of artists – and on creating temporary audio-visual works tailored to the particular space. In Portugal in 2005, German and Portuguese artists got together at the invitation of Rui Horta in a former Benedictine monastery in Montemor-o-Novo. In 2010, 12 international artists will meet in Karlsruhe to develop audio-visual projects and installations at the University of Arts and Design. Throughout the work phase, these projects and installations will be accompanied by lectures and workshops. And at the end of the week, the results will be presented to the public and documented.
